Show Faith by Works LLC (Reg. 7653) Registers Under FARA for Israel's Foreign Ministry: Christian Outreach in the Western U.S., $2.31M Received by March 2026

Filing date (registration): 2025-09-27. Show Faith by Works, LLC (California, organized 2025-08-05; responsible individual and sole owner Chad Schnitger) registered for “Israel - Ministry of Foreign Affairs.” Agreement date 2025-09-18, no formal contract (correspondence). Registrant’s own description of its business: “Pro-Israel outreach and marketing to Christians.”

Plan as filed. Exhibit B: a mobile “October 7th experience” trailer shown at churches and Christian colleges, geofenced digital targeting, pastor outreach, and “possibly even Christian social media influencers”; the attached budget workbook lists “Will identify Social Media influencers to hire in exchange for favorable coverage” and a “Requested Budget” of $3,258,961 (including $685,000 targeted media). That is a proposal, not spending.

Money as filed. Receipt 2025-09-18 (pre-registration): $325,881 from Havas Media. Supplemental, 2025-10-01 to 2026-03-31 (filed 2026-05-01): six receipts from the Israeli MFA totaling $2,313,791.50 (2025-09-27, 10-10, 12-11, 12-30, 2026-01-15, 03-10); disbursements stated as $3,333,191.86. In the filed Item 15(a) table most rows appear twice (same date, payee, amount; confirmed on the rendered page) and the filed total includes both copies, so actual spending is not established; the table, halved, would be about $1.67M. Largest payee categories: trailer build/equipment (Griggs Home Service), payroll (Graystone Public), Uncharted (Israel tour travel), legal compliance (Holtzman Vogel PLLC, Dhillon Law Group). Creator-type lines: one podcast-consulting payee ($7,500 after de-duplication), video editing ($200), “National Media” contractor ($10,000 after de-duplication). No paid-creator program at the Reg. 7652 scale appears.

Short forms and materials. Eight short forms (staff, managers, consultants, a writer, a design contractor); none is a social-media creator. Informational materials carry the “Hear From Us” / “The Israel Experience” brand (hearfromus.org) with the label “distributed by Show Faith By Works on behalf of Israel - Ministry of Foreign Affairs”; the October 2026 mailer is a 2026 tour (CA, NV, AZ, UT, CO, WY). Seven press contacts logged (responding to media inquiries). Verdict: documented as a church-outreach operation funded by the Israeli MFA; the influencer line is a plan, not a documented payment.
